Chasing 160 to win, Deccan Chargers were cruising well towards victory before a middle order upset saw them bowled out for 157 in 19.5 overs.

Rohit Sharma was the only player to provide some resistance scoring 73.


Earlier Shane Watson cracked a scintillating 36-ball 58 but Rajasthan Royals suffered a middle-order batting collapse to be dismissed for 159

Watson blasted three fours and as many sixes to stand amidst the ruins, even as Michael Lumb (15), Naman Ojha (1), Yusuf pathan (5), Abhishek Jhunjhunwala (11) and Abhishek Raut (0) were dismissed cheaply. Watson played a dashing knock to anchor the Rajasthan innings but their batting capitulated as they lost first half of their side for 130 in 15.2 overs
